he just confirmed more skins as well coming.
Games are decided by who has the best healer imo. I can't play offence or tanks outside of gaf groups, where there will be a competent healer. In pub games I play support only and keep everyone alive.

Just had a Hanamura attack where someone left at the start of the game and wasn't replaced even though we ran the full timer and took the first point. It's not even like it's an off hour in Europe.
Playing Lucio or Symmetra will carry you to higher levels.

Please, good skins for Junkrat and Zarya.
Edit: Scratch that. I want greaser Junkrat.
MMR only works correctly when playing with groups, even if your group doesn't comminuicate well. You can see when your team is having a bad time.
If you play solo, everything is just screwed. In solo you can tell when a group is just dumb or just having an off day.
If your team has bad group survivability compared to you (keeping respawn times between you in the group off balance) you are most likely not paired with an even team. Even if you wait for your group they will most likely die before you do and by the time you die they'll be respawning and returning.
The only time I've enjoyed long sessions in this game is with groups. Solo has become complete trash. I originally was able to get by, now its almost impossible to play and I actually got a migrane because of how frustrating it was in one match.

If a map doesn't have any obvious points I tend to drop turrets near the full health packs to pick off the weak.
On the ranked mode issue the reason it'll be better is because MMR will be much more effective in separating the wheat from the chaff since a larger percentage of the players will be tryharding instead of fucking around.
Nope. I don't like it, and the clown ones are even worse.
I don't use Junkrat, but one of the best skins in the game.
Great stuff. Can't wait to see what they bring out in the upcoming 6-12 months.
I know how to counterpick but I'm terrible at all the heroes that counter the other team so it's useless. I'll let someone else deal with it while I spam grenades. :|

Hmmm, he also said they are thinking about doing a public test realm. I really hope they do it. If done right, test realms can improve the game massively. Battlefield 4 was the perfect example for this. That game was ready to just fall apart until they added a public test realm and with that they completely fixed all the major problems and did even more with it. There is so much good Blizzard could do with this.

I want to help my team / friends, what are the most helpful classes that nobody is using and should provide some backup? I understand that the game is not based around this and more around "counter pick what the other team is using right now", but I'm not that good yet so I just need the basics. I'm currently playing mostly with Mercy, Reinhardt, Lucio.

Funnily enough junkrat has turned into my go to counterpick.
As much as i hate playing against him he's fun to play as.
Entire Rockabilly theme skins, pls

I'd like to see a new support character that is mobility based. Not speed like Lucio, but can do stuff like jump boost other characters into positions they normally couldn't get to or would take a while.

Awesome, definitely looking forward to the new content!
This makes it sound like they're much further along with new heroes than they are with new maps...
Interesting...

That's a really cool idea. Although I feel that would just become a troll character where people would try and knock their teammates off the map or when their in their ult and just screw with them. If that wasn't the case, it could be a really cool character.

Having someone yell at me for not trying to kill a widowmaker as a pharah
If they knew what they were talking about they would know pharah is pretty hard countered by widowmaker...
I just ignored him but still tried to harass the wm when I can

Fortunately grenades do well against most things (except for Farah)
Seems like a lot of good stuff happening behind the scenes. Let's hope most of these manage to make it and that Jeff can keep having a relatively open conversation about development.
Zarya Winston are excellent picks that are less likely to be chosen in pubs. Rein/Lucio/Mercy/Zarya/Winston are extremely popular on the competitive scene and you are already maining the majority of those.

Someone did that to me once, it was cool.
Thank you, I appreciate it.

I just learned that you could rotate Meis ice wall. This changes so much.
Works for me. I hope all the new heroes are support/tanks for a while. Those are always at a premium so new ones will help fill out those roles in more games. Also no more fucking snipers pls.
The next hero is confirmed a support/sniper

winston is terrible vs turrets
if u want a turret killing tank ur pretty much stuck with d.va

Yeah I mean, in that maps my experience is people picking mainly offence heroes to fight for the point and there winston shines. But ofc if someone is smart enough to change for turret I have a problem.

Zara is really good against turrets when she has high energy and she can survive a couple seconds against it with her shield, which gives her even more damage.

Interesting post from Jeff, so it seems maps and heroes are in the works but not modes. I really feel the game needs one more unique mode. But obviously maps and heroes are great and will keep the game fresh. I really love how he opened up more than devs usually do.
I really hope we get demos soon, or a way to save clips at least. Plus a clan system would just change this game for the better, being able to add people without having to add them to BNet would be great, I'd love to have a hub of friends and friends of friends.

Are we talking Symetra or Torb? Symetra turrets are super easy to destroy with Winston. Torb's turrets are easy with Winston as well, if you are good with the bubble shield placement.
